Title of review Nintendo DS
What are the strengths? There are little strengths of the Nintendo DS. It is easy to play. The idea of the touch screen is great. The has DS a quicker loading time than the GameBoy Advance SP. The DS also plays GBA games which is very useful.
What are the weaknesses? First of all, the brightest setting on the Nintendo DS is hardly bright.
Secondly, the design is clunky and strange. The Nintendo DS also attracts more scratches than the DS Lite. The buttons are also just a bit too small, plus the color of the buttons which is black on the silver DS looks horrible. I believe that the placement of the microphone is not good and the placement of it on the DS Lite is much better.
Summary I dont really like the Nintendo DS, but I can say that it does have some strengths. I would recommend the Nintendo DS Lite much more than the DS.
Do you recommend this product? No
